-When Ian was a baby, he had a 'toy-corner' in every room in the flat, even Mrs. Hudson's.
-Sherlock hated when people would, "Aww, he's so cute!" when they were in public. Sherlock didn't like people to touch him, to even look at his son.
-Ian loooooooves fruit, which John loves. Ian looooooooves lemons, which John hates.
-In case you want to know, Ian's first word was "Up". He liked to be held. Then, "Dad" and "Dada" came, then "Down", then "Mama", which was actually 'Grandma', then "Yes".
-Ian learned how to walk when he was just over a year old. Sherlock thought it was brilliant, but John didn't like having to baby-proof everything. He always forgot that Sherlock put blocks on the drawers and low cabinets; it annoyed the hell out of John.
-Ian loves John's cooking, even if Sherlock doesn't.
-John and Sherlock decided not to let Ian have sweets much when he was little. Sherlock had bad reactions to sugar as a kid; they didn't want to take the risk.
-John bought Ian a soccer ball (football) when he was six. It wasn't his first ball; it was his first real ball. He and Sherlock took it to the park one day and Sherlock watched him throw and kick it around. Ian tried to get Sherlock to join, but Sherlock refused. Finally, he gave in, kicked the ball all wrong, and Ian asked, "Daddy do you even know how to kick a football?"
-Ian had a lot of toy cars and Lego's growing up. He and John used to make tracks for the cars and race them.
-Ian, when he was ten, was thoroughly convinced that Sherlock was a vampire. Of course he was wrong, but Sherlock played around with him for a while and actually scared Ian. John thought it was mean, but Sherlock thought it was funny. And after he felt bad.
-Ian used to hum the same tune over and over, and one evening while bathing him, John asked him what the words were. The song went, "I love dad - And I love daddy – and daddy loves dad – and dad loves daddy."
-Ian convinced John to paint his bedroom door blue when he was 8. Ian pretended it was the TARDIS.
-Ian has, on more than one occasion, sent Greg and Mycroft texts pretending to be Sherlock. It's pretty funny, but it wasn't very funny when Sherlock missed out on a big case because a certain son of his took his phone and text Greg instead of letting Sherlock have the phone.
-When Ian was about six, John left town for a few days and Ian got the stomach flu. Sherlock was stuck with him and wore rubber gloves and a face mask the whole time. However, he very bravely stuck out many, many vomits in bed and one in the bathtub.
-Ian loved his baths.
-Ian's first girlfriend was when they were 7. Her name was Beverly and she had long brown hair with light, tan skin and bright green eyes. Ian told John he was going to marry her.
-He asked John how to propose to someone, and John got all goo-ey and mush-ey like he does when he thinks about his husband and himself, and he told Ian just to say what came to his heart. Ian wrote her a love-letter that said, "Dearest Beverly, Marry me. Love, Ian Holmes-Watson."
-John did proof read the letter. He laughed and asked if Ian was sure this is the letter he wanted to give her. He said of course. He let Sherlock read it. Sherlock laughed, too.
-Beverly said yes.
-Ian asked Sherlock what 'homosexual' meant when he was about 12. Sherlock told him to ask John and laughed for three days.
-Sally actually liked Sherlock a lot more after Ian was born. She's a woman, she loves babies and kids. Ian thought she was really cool, too.
-Ian liked to play dress up in his dads' clothes. It started with one of John's jumper's the weekend he was sick with the stomach flu, but eventually he took a fancy to Sherlock's scarf, then he liked to wear Sherlock's coat. It was far too long, obviously. But he loved wearing it around the house.
*Just a few quick things. I think tomorrow I might start a new story all-together for the longer stories.
*Also I had a sudden AU of my AU…what if their son was biologically John's…dunn, dunn, duuuuuuunn…
